A buddy of mine runs a SVT with Konis and race tires as his only mods. He is an amazing driver (as you can see from the video). He had the opportunity to take out a SS Cobalt (Turbo) on Street tires for comparison. The times where just about identical.
Here's the video:

^^It has a lot more to do with the course setup. He is used to his car but then again, he is an amazing driver none the less in any car he gets in. FWD, AWD, and RWD.
The SS Cobalt will probably take the focus out on a road course.
I thought it was a really cool video he did with a great comparison. The SS when around the course about the same even with the added power.

^^opps didn't catch that. Well then you can still see him fighting the SS more than the svt. The SVT looks like it's going so smoothly through the turns, where in the SS he's fighting more with under steer and such.
